Val di Suga\u2019s history began in 1969, when a company owned by Aldo Moro bought agricultural land to the north of Montalcino and built a manufacturing and retail business on it. Previously used for forage, these lands were gradually made into vineyards as they changed hands a number of times until, in 1982, Val di Suga began making wines in its own winemaking cellars. The first vintage to be sold was Val di Suga Brunello Riserva 1977. The company\u2019s viticultural and oenological growth was rapid.These were the years in which the denomination\u2019s success and expansion began. It was this and constant hard work and commitment in both wine growing and making, that made Val di Suga begin to stand out in the Montalcino wine panorama. A vineyard in a lakeside position in front of the estate buildings was chosen for its special characteristics to produce to first Brunello selection, Vigna del Lago. The first vintage produced for this cru was 1983.n 1988 the company bought one of the most famous of Montalcino\u2019s single vineyard sites, Spuntali, around 15 hectares of vineyard acknowledged by all to be one of the best Brunello terroir zones, on a south-west facing site. Just a few years later, in 1994, the Angelini Group arrived bringing fresh impetus to Val di Suga \u2013 by then award-winning and internationally recognized for the top quality of its wines \u2014 in terms of important viticultural investment and modernization and enlargement of the wine making buildings. These were the years of internal \u2018rivalry\u2019 between the company\u2019s two single vineyard wines, Vigna Spuntali (first vintage produced and sold : 1988) \u2014 from the southern most of the denomination\u2019s vineyards \u2014 and Vigna del Lago \u2014 a lakeside vineyard washed by a lake at the foot of Montalcino\u2019s northern slopes. It was a rivalry which saw first one and then the other of the two star Brunellos in pride of place in wine sector guides and international points systems always at ultra-high levels and internationally famous.

Tasting Notes
Pale garnet with very bright rubyorangey highlights. It is a yesteryear Brunello. An elegant, slender, soft wine with great volume, but unmistakeable lightness. Its tannins are velvety.On the nose what prevails is notes of fresh cherries, violets and candied peel.
